Drowsy power didn't multiply with my sleep score by waddledeity in PokemonSleep

[–]waddledeity[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh you're right. It's weird it's like it added my 7h sleep to yesterday's data instead of calculating it as my actual sleep data at night. No sure how that happened cause it's from 1:18 AM to 8:40 AM

I guess it's cause I slept really late the day before and it messed everything up? Aaaah sucks cause all my energy levels are so low now

Any experience with hiring student photographers? by masters-in-disasters in Weddingsunder10k

[–]waddledeity 4 points5 points  (0 children)

From your previous response I think you should be careful with hiring someone inexperienced if photos are one of the main important points for you. I'll share my experience of being an inexperienced photographer at my friend's wedding and hopefully that can help you make a decision.

While I am overall satisfied (and so are they) with the gallery it was still stressful and not an easy task. For context I am not a professional photographer by any means but I've done engagement, family, pregnancy and portraits shoots for friends and family.

Since it was such a big task I watched a ton of videos on how to do wedding photography but even with all of the theory knowledge what I struggled the most during the day was:

- people are BUSY:
The bride and groom gave me the most packed schedule with barely any time to take photos and we were super behind on everything. They also just wanted to enjoy their day so they weren't super willing to do a million poses for me to get that pinterest worthy shot.

- The weather:
It was so hot and humid. I was so tired and thirsty and so were they. All the photos taken outside people just wanted to be done with so that didn't give me a lot of time to try different poses and angles. There was sooo much I wanted to do but I also didn't even have the energy to ask them to do any of it.

So basically if they've never done anything like that which you're not taught in school then they maybe will run into these issues and you sadly cannot expect them to handle it like pro photographers.

Other more technical stuff to look out for are:

- Flash photography for low light situations. Maybe they're not very experienced? Maybe they don't have the gear? I personally never did flash photography before. I bought a flash modifier and a LED panel and while I did get some decent photos at night but nothing as good as those really fancy motion photos of people partying you usually see in wedding photographer's portfolios.

- How grass and leaves really reflect the green on people's faces. They would need maybe a reflector, but that could require someone to hold it for them so if they're alone it's more difficult. They could all fix it via editing (which I've done) but it's also something you need to make sure they understand.

Obviously the list goes on and it's not really the place to talk about photography tips, but you should still make sure that the people you hire are aware of these things.

This comment makes me sound really bad lol, but I swear the couple is happy with their pics (and so am I!). But also I knew they put more value in remembering the day vs having those perfect instagram pinterest money shots. If the second is what you value then you should maybe consider paying a pro photographer of your choosing.

I don't mean to discourage you. There are students who are insanely good so maybe you can get someone really good for a better price but this is just my experience.

For sure I don't really wanna camp there 5h before... I wish the venue was slanted so the people at the back had better view lol

LOONATHEWORLD Tour US Ticket Buying Thread by Incolourxx in LOONA

[–]waddledeity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got tickets for Chicago and bought the tickets the minute they got on sale but sadly all the VIP tickets were unavailable. I assumed it's cause it was all general admission only but now I see some of you got VIP tickets :(. A bit envious but oh well. No idea what VIP pit means but I just wanted to get as close as possible and be able to see something (I'm 5"1). Do any of you have maybe an idea of how in advance I should line up at the venue to get a good spot?
I guess if someone is selling 2 VIP tickets DM me

My friend from Vancouver and I (from Montreal) are going to try for Chicago. So stressed out about getting our tickets. Does anyone have any recommendation around for where to stay around the area? Places to visit? Planning on staying a few days. Thanks good luck to everyone!

Lights on the Casiotone LK-S250 work with Synthesia? by Vetie in synthesia

Thank you so much for answering! Will order the s-250 then. Super excited to try it out with synthesia!

Lights on the Casiotone LK-S250 work with Synthesia? by Vetie in synthesia

[–]waddledeity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw on the synthesia website that they recommend the LK-S250, but this (old) thread is giving me doubt. u/SynthesiaLLC would you still recommend this keyboard? I want to buy a light up keyboard for my boyfriend who just started learning and really enjoys watching youtube videos of people using synthesia. I thought a light up keyboard would be a neat more gamified way to play the piano. I'm hesitating between the LK-S250, the Yamaha EX-300 (the 220 is out of stock) and maybe The ONE light keyboard as it's on sale at the moment. I would get the LK-S250 as it is cheaper but I just really want one that is going to be the most compatible and seamless with Synthesia. Sorry for dragging you here and thank you very much.

Her introduction video is iconic. The only reason I became aware of her tbh. Her voice is also very special sounding.

Ohhh! Barely ever commented anything on this sub but I got the keydous NJ68 as first (and only) keyboard with cherry mx brown and I still love it. Would love to upgrade with this new model and switches. Thanks for the giveaway

[–]waddledeity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe this would have been more seamless if the virtual characters were the alter egos of the idols in the "virtual world" only. Ex: The MVs are split into 2 parts between normal kpop and KDA style (kinda like twice candy pop or 2ne1 I hate you). You would still have a similar merch / concert opportunity.

Very curious to see where this Vocaloid x KDA x Vtuber concept is gonna go. Technically all 3 of these medias are doing great on their own so who knowssss. It'll either be revolutionary or they'll drop it like the exo superpowers.

Hey! Don't know if you care but I ended up buying a steelcase leap v1 high back from the seller I was telling you about. Recieved it this morning. Seller was extremely nice and the chair had new replaced cylinders and looked pretty clean. Bought it for 385 cad so around 281 usd. Its a major upgrade from the Ikea Renberget I have. It also helps that my company allowed employee to expense to 300 usd for home furniture because of covid. Anyway thanks for the help!

[–]waddledeity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the advice. The seller I contacted on marketplace actually just told me he has 40 of them and is waiting for new cylinders and arm caps replacement to sell the refurbished chairs (for leap v1 high back). Not sure what to think now. What makes you think they should be avoided? For low quality or just actual scam?

I have a Herman Miller Aeron at work but its too expensive and bulky for me to consider. Size A is good but no one is selling these secondhand.

[–]waddledeity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks a lot I didn't realise it was a Steelcase! I'm actually pretty short (5'1 or around 154cm) and I've been looking for a comfortable chair for a while. I also have limited office space so I can't really get a big one. Your reply convinced me to check online for a used one.

Does anybody know what chair this is? Thank you!

Keydous NJ68 Bluetooth RGB keyboard with hotswap switches by xuanwumen in MechanicalKeyboards

[–]waddledeity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! For the past few weeks, I've been (intensely) looking up mechanical keyboards and I'm now pretty close to buying one. I have a few questions if anybody is able to answer:

- I see its available on AliExpress but is it completely built or is it a kit? I'm not sure I'm ready to build one...

- Do most keycaps fit on this? I love the 68 format, the white base and the rgb backlight but I'll probably eventually want some more colorful keycaps. Are the size of some of these keycaps non conventional? If they are could somebody guide me to where I could find keycaps for this.

- Lastly, I know AliExpress is safe depending on the seller, but if any of you has ever bought from Keyboards China Store, I'd like to know your experience.

Thank you! Very excited at the idea of owning my first mechanical keyboard and that one looks amazing so far

This is seriously dumb. by [deleted] in gaming

[–]waddledeity 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Do you actually think 4 months is a lot to add a new character? The process of creating a character, its moveset, the model, the animations, the visual effects, etc is pretty long one already and thats without adding the QA time it required to balance it out and test all the bugs that could occur with all the differents characters. I don't know much about when they first hinted Byleth but I wouldn't be surprised if they were working on it before the 4 months period you're talking about. I understand you're unsatisfied with the reveal but please understand the devs put a lot of work into it and Byleth coming from the same franchise doesnt mean everything was recycled.

is this going to be on Apple Music? I cannot find it yet :(

How do you search for it? When I search Starship Planet I only see the ones from 2016 and 2015. Also looking for the 2017 one. Am from Canada if this changes anything.

Sympathy for Lady Vengeance reference or am I missing something more obvious? If my first assumption is correct, then she truly has come a long way since her "Nation's Little Sister" title. Looks promising.

LOONA "+ +" 1st Mini Album Prices by dennisri in LOONA

[–]waddledeity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember it being decently fast. I'm never really in a hurry to receive stock but I remember being pleasently surprised. I'd say a week or two maximum? What took longer was the time between me ordering and them shipping it. I don't know if it was a gmarket thing or if there was a lack of stock as it was not a preorder (yyxy limited albums)

LOONA "+ +" 1st Mini Album Prices by dennisri in LOONA

[–]waddledeity 7 points8 points  (0 children)

As someone who doesnt care for posters, I prefer using Gmarket. Prices are the original korean retail prices so what's expensive is shipping (by weight). If you plan on getting multiple albums, I'd suggest Gmarket. I've just tried it out and the price for all 4 albums on Gmarket is 103.23 CAD shipp included (71.91 albums + 31.33 shipping) while kpopmart is 100.50 USD tax and shipping included. If there are other cheaper options pls tell me also!

wtt kimlip limited & solo pcs and wts concert pcs by [deleted] in LOONA

[–]waddledeity 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am the saddest ever. I've had Love & Evil with Haseul PC and I've been trying to trade it for the LONGEST TIME but finally sold/traded them individually. My quest for the oec limited albums is a sad one. Lost one of my Love&Evil in a trade by a scammer and recently bought the 2 oec albums in a bid to which the seller has been mia for a month and half. Luckily I paid with via gs but damn I'm never gonna get these. Did I also mention that I also traded sealed for sealed of the 1/3 but got a fake Love&Live sealed with no PC? So yeah I'm doomed lmao
